NEWS-REVIEW, ROSEBURG, OREGONTHURSDAY, JANUARY 13. 194? THIRTEEN lions of children are taught how to be HKe their leader. He stated that even though one-sixth of Nightmarish Art, Heavy Traffic Toll Of Lives, 'Joe Stalin' Textbook Are Topics at Toastmasters Club Meet By LEROY IKMAN Surrealistic art does not command very much respect in the minds of Roseburg Toastmasters. This fact was brought out at Tuesday night's club meeting in the Hotel Umpqua, when Table topics Chairman Delbert Parker introduced the subject for one minute talks by club m?mbers. He presented as an illustration pages torn from a popular magazine. That the surrealist is either a victim of horrible nightmares or is wisely out to reap the reve nue his product may net was the general consensus of opin ion advanced by the members, who offered some amusing re marks, few of which were com plimentary to the modernistic or Impressionistic artist. Most of the members confessed an utter lack of ability to under stand the meaning of such paint ings and admitted that they glance suspiciously and unlnter estedly at the so-called art, then turn the page to something they consider more interesting. Dewey Bennett, serving as toastmaster, introduced John Dentler, Bill Tipton, Dr. S. L. DeLapp and Russell Stephens as vfpeakcrs. Roy Barnhart was gen "eral critic. See Lott Of World Dentler, giving a biographical sketch, said he was born in Cor vallis, but since his father was in the service his life was ex tremely varied. He went with his parents to Cuba with Spanish American occupation force.s There he learned to speak Span ish fluently. Back to New York for a time, he accompanied his parents next to the Philippines. They returned to San Francisco a short time before the earth quake and his father was sta tioned there. His father's service took them next to Leavenworth, Kan., then to Washington, D. C, Texas and finally to the Pacific Northwest, where Dentler has remained since. He has been with the employment service several years. Traffic Toll Heavy Speaking on the subject, "It Can -Happen to You," Tipton quoted statistics to show the "astound ing number" of accidents by au tomobiles. During the last 25 years, he said, automobiles have caused 750.000 deaths and in jured 25,000,000 people. Instead of the new automobiles giving us a safer ride, they are bringing us closer to the cemetery, he said. Statistics for 1947 show 32.000 killed, 1,100,000 Injured and $900,000,000 of property dam age from automobile accidents. We often say "War is hell," but truthfully we are "systematically eliminating ourselves by the le thal weapon ironically called the pleasure car." Nine times as many accidents occur from driv ers at 19 years of age than at 50. He commended such training in struction as that given to stu dents at Roseburg High School, 'here .young . folk . are'-taught ow to drive correctly and at reasonable speeds. Ha advised that we all "slow down" and cut down on the loss of lives in 1949. Dr. DeLapp told a group' of humorous stories in several dia lects as his talk. Joe Stalin At Exemplar The importance of "knowing more about the people who would destroy us," was brought out in Stephens' talk, who based his information on the current book. "I Want To Be Like Stalin.'1 This hook he described as a text for Russian schools, where mil- 5 Nationally Adverlisedl liberal Trade-In Allowance 54.95 Model 408 Perfect Too Hairline Selectivity Wide Range Reception, tt'i your for better listening.

The truth Is, he said, most people know very little about what is going on behind the iron curtain. The book, he said, is probably one of the best sources of in formation to acquaint us with the U.S.S.R. He concluded by saying, ' "I want to be like Stalin' is the prayer of millions of people who are going to affect us. What is Stalin?"

Delinquency Of Juveniles Topic At Radio Forum "We must stress to the children they are playing a gfme of life," Captain Claud Boden, Salvation Army director, said in summing up the juvinile delinquency prob lem in Douglas County. Boden was one of four persons speaking on law enforcement problems In the county ae related to juveniles, during the Junior Chamber of Commerce-sponsored radio forum Wednesday night. appearing on e Police Chief The forum was broadcast over station KRNR. Other speakers the program were Calvin Baird, State Police Serge ant L,yie iiarreu ana county Ju venile Officer Agnes M. Pitciiford. Boden cited basketball as an example of "playing the ame." He told if a member of the team violates a rule, he is penalized by a referee and the rest of the team suffers as a desult. He pointed out the police force is the referee in life. "They are there to see the game is played fairly," Boden stated The broadcast was a departure from preceding broadcasts, with questions being directed to the speakers, which were answered Informally and somewhat extem poraneously. - Car Thefts Numeroue. Asked what are the most seri ous law enforcement problems, re lating to juveniles, Chief Baird and Sergeant Han ell cited car thefts and burglaries in the felony department-, while traffic viola tions appeared to be the major difficulty as misdemeanors go. Harrell said 18 cars were stolen in the Roseburg area during the past six months. "It is safe to say 15 of these were by Juveniles." He added, however that In most cases, (he cars were stolen by youths of other cities and states. All four speakers agreed juve nile crimes were on the decrease here, while they decided violators fell In the 1619 year age group. Three of the group thought eco nomic levels had little to do with the making of a "delinquent," 'Ser geant Harrell felt there was a tendency toward felonies by child ren of the lower income group. Broken homes, lack of super vision by parents, enviroment, health, lack of religious training, and certain radio programs, mo tion pictures and magazines deal ing with crime topics were given as causes for Juvenile delinquency. Solutions to the problem and plans being made to curb delin quency among Juveniles include supervised recreation programs, leaving car doors locked, obeying traffic laws, and exercising good Judgement while operating motor vehicles. Chief Baird cited the 10 p. m. to 5 a. m. curfew as a step In keeping delinquency down. Par ents who allow their children to violate the ordinance can be fined a $f0 maximum penalty or re tained as a "guest'' of the city for a period of 25 days. Miss Pitch ford said parents should be glad such,an ordinance exists here. "It prevents crime," she pointed out.
